This afternoon, I got out the leaf blower and blew the leaves into piles on the east side of the house. I raked and blew them onto a tarp and dragged them down to the edge of the woods and dumped them. It got late so I'll do the west side another day.

I took off the old dryer vent and put on the new one. I haven't screwed it in yet. I have to drill some holes because the old one had two screws in the center and this one has four at the corners. It fit nice and snug so it will be OK until I get that job done.

When I was at the Home Depot, a man told his two boys to grab a couple of them. There were styrofoam things in a display basket. I looked at the sign to see what they were and they were covers for an outdoor faucet. They were only a dollar so I got one and put it on today.

I had planned to go to Aunt Jean's but I got a slow start and I didn't feel up to going. I called my brothers to see if they could take Danny but Don wasn't home and Sylvia's sister was coming with her dog. I figured I could walk Danny around 11:00 and he would be good to leave for the afternoon. I called Aunt Jean's but no one was home there either. Maybe they all ready left for lunch. I decided I would watch a movie and rest. I felt better after lunch so I got to work on the leaves.

We are in Alabama and it got down to 26 night before last. We woke to no water. Of course we are hooked up to the campground spigot for water. We didn't think it would get cold enough to freezer overnight. WRONG! We also went to Home Depot and got lenghts of styrofoam that fit around the hose. That and the heat tape has us set. Most nights Len gets coffee ready to go for the morning. Of course that night he forgot! Had to wait for hoses to defrost for that delicious cup in the morning.

Keep warm up there!
